Animal Justice Fund (AJF) is a $1,000,000 fund established in 2007 to promote the cause of animal welfare through the prosecution of persons or businesses under the Tasmanian animal welfare legislation who commit
crimes against animals used in intensive farming, or who abuse animals by commercial and/or recreational practices.

The AJF aims will be achieved, in part, by the payment of rewards (maximum of
$25,000) to members of the public who provide information that leads to the
successful prosecution of offenders of animal cruelty.
